Beauty Of The Ride - Sebadoh

Never did and never will

It’s just the way it’s always been

I’ve made mistakes before

I’ll make the same again

And all this tension we ignore

Surely works its ugly way inside

I have known that nothing’s fair

Surely what did I expect?

When magic slips into the air

And every day’s another test

And all this tension we ignore

It surely works its ugly way outside

So let it build, let it explode

Leaving blood and shattered bone

Or bite your tongue

Till you’ve forgotten what to say

And take another step back

Until you find you’ve walked away

Silence like disease

But I dare not say it hurts

‘Cause if I honestly react

Nothing’s ever going to work

And all this tension back and forth

It’s just the beauty of the ride

It’s just the beauty of the ride

So let it build, let it explode

Leaving blood and shattered bone

Or bite your tongue

Till you’ve forgotten what to say

And take another step back

Until you find you’ve walked away
